A monolithic ceramic capacitor includes a plurality of first and second inner electrodes in a ceramic body. A direction in which the first and second inner electrodes are stacked is a stacking direction, a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction in the ceramic body is a length direction, and a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction and the first direction is a width direction. The ceramic body includes an effective portion, a first outer layer portion, a second outer layer portion, a first side portion, and a second side portion. A ratio A/B is about 0.04 or less when a dimension of each of the first side portion and the second side portion in the width direction is A and a dimension of the effective portion in the stacking direction is B.
